Carta de Elder Olson 11-15-2010

It was a very challenging week, but we learned a lot. We had a lot of teaching appointments, and we are having a problem trying to help our investigators keep commitments. I put some goals, and to achieve them, I came up with some plans. I came to the conclusion to better my commitments that I make to help investigators progress. I decided to study well, the promises of each commandment that we commit to investigators to keep. In one of my studies I have found something that I guess I didn´t pay much attention to. For the sabath day, in 3NE 18:7, I found something that I never understood clearly... and I feel like it´s something good to share with you. In the 4th or 3rd sentence of that verse it says "If you do this, it will be a testimony to god that you remembered me". A little before in the chapter, the first verses were talking about taking the sacrament... and if we take the sacarment it will be a testimony that we remembered our savior, Jesus Christ. When we find ourselves in the judgement seat, it will be our testimony that we remembered him. We have been able to apply this lately, and I felt more power as I promised these blessings, and other blessings that I have studied. I know the spirit confirms all truth...
and the spirit was able to testify through me.
It´s a blessing to be out here in Argentina, and focus on the needs of others instead of my needs. My companion and I are learning a lot, even though we are older missionaries. I´m blessed to practice a lot of spanish with him.
Take care, love

Elder Olson
